Hi everyone,

We have just updated our Forum!
Our platform is now running on NodeBB v2.8.0.
You will identify some UI changes, especially when it comes to thread flows.
Hope you enjoy this new look - take some time to get used to it if you haven't seen it in other forums.

And as always, thank you for your patience.

If you encounter any bugs or anything out of place, please let us know so we can take care of that.

Cheers,
Pedro

Probably not reproducible and no big deal, but yesterday a random "Reply to topic XYZ" (dont remember what topic it actually was) window popped-up out of nowhere on my General & Desktop category overview page.
I remember, that I clicked the notification bell, where I got notifications from other topics, but nothing had to do with this specific topic.
Never visited this topic before, nor watched, followed or commented on it.

I know that's not much information, but maybe someone else have experienced something similar :)

@Pl45m4 Hi, and thanks for the report.
I haven't encountered this issue myself, but I'll keep an eye open in case it appears for me. :)

Since I'm already here, it would be nice / a QoL improvement, if the number of upvoters on your own (or even all) comments is clickable again. So it results in a popup, that shows a list of all upvoters again, when there are more than 4 or 5.
Currently you can only hover over the number and the bubble says something like Alice, Bob, Carl, Donald and 5 more....

IIRC, it was possible before and was gone by the time the downvote button got removed.

@Pl45m4 reply window pops up automatically when I open Qt forum page on Windows 11. This is a bug. But the problem does not show up every time.

Pedro

@Pl45m4 Thanks for reporting. You can still check all upvoters: click the number and it will pop up. When hovering the number, your cursor does not change however to show it's clickable. We will look into it.

Pedro

@JoeCFD Please let me know if you (or anyone else reading it) can reproduce the issue.

random "Reply" window to random and old topic pops up

I think these are old orphaned drafts -- we clicked "Reply" on a topic but didn't send it.

I had accumulated many of these over the years. Took me a while to discard them all 😅 The issue doesn't occur for me anymore

and I think he's spot on

Pedro

@Pl45m4 Okay, we now fixed the hovering issue.

@J-Hilk @JKSH We can't reproduce it, but we are now aware of the issue.
